PRETORIA. – Wêreldrugby se beroemdste speler, Sonny Bill Williams, is gereed om met die Stormers te gesels oor ’n moontlike kontrak om Kaapstad sy volgende tuiste te maak.

Die 26-jarige All Black wil ook die geweldige ondersteuning beloon wat hy in die Moederstad geniet en beplan om in November dáár in die bokskryt te klim.

Williams se agent, mnr. Khoder Nasser, is tans in Kaapstad om verskeie geleenthede vir sy kliënt te ondersoek en het gesê ’n kontrak met die Stormers is nie uitgesluit nie.

“Dit is egter nie vir my om te sê die Stormers moet hom kontrakteer nie, daardie keuse lê by hulle en by hulle alleen. Wat ek wel kan sê, is dat Sonny Bill geweldig baie van Kaapstad hou en beslis na so iets sal kyk.”

Gerugte wil dit hê dat die Wes-Kaapse regering ook bereid is om ’n bydrae tot Williams se moontlike kontrak te maak, maar Nasser wou nie daarop reageer nie. Hy ontmoet wel vandag vir dr. Ivan Meyer, Wes-Kaapse minister van Sport.

Williams speel tans vir die Chiefs en het ’n kontrak met die Nieu-Seelandse Rugbyunie wat einde vanjaar verstryk. Hy word tans reuse-bedrae geld uit veral Japan aangebied om volgende seisoen sy rugby daar te speel, maar Nasser sê Williams beskou Kaapstad as sy tweede tuiste.

“As hy al die uitnodigings vir etes moet opneem wat hy verlede jaar hier gekry het, sal hy vir twee jaar drie etes per dag in drie verskillende huishoudings hê. Sonny Bill voel dat die Kapenaars ’n waardering vir sy talente het, daarom geniet hy Kaapstad so,” het Nasser gesê.

Williams se boksgeveg in November en sy deelname aan ’n internasionale sewestoernooi in George in Desember, is gister deur Nasser, die bokspromotor mnr. Tinus Strydom en die rugbypromotor mnr. Willem Strauss bekragtig.

“Ons gaan voortaan Sonny Bill se boksbelange hanteer. Dit is ’n geweldige geleentheid vir boks in Suid-Afrika, aangesien hy ook ’n aanbod van die Amerikaner, Don King, oorweeg het. Ek dink ons kan sy loopbaan op die regte manier vorentoe neem,” het Strydom gesê.

Planne om Williams teen die gewese wêreldkampioen, Francois Botha, te laat veg, is steeds op koers, maar dit sal nie in November reeds plaasvind nie.

Nasser het aangedui dat nie net Williams nie, maar ook sy ander kliënt, die Wallaby Quade Cooper, aan die sewestoernooi behoort deel te neem.

Die toernooi word op 14 en 15 Desember op Outeniquapark gespeel met die vyf Super-streekspanne en 11 ander wat deur maatskappye gekoop word, wat deelneem. ’n Prysgeld ter waarde van R1miljoen wag op die wenspan en verskeie wêreldsterre het aangedui hulle wil deelneem.

“Dit is fantastiese nuus vir die toernooi,” het Strauss gesê.

“Ons het pas met spelers en hul werknemers oor deelname aan die toernooi begin onderhandel en die NBM-groep gaan Williams en Cooper in hul span, die NBM All Stars, kies. Williams en Cooper het nog nooit saamgespeel nie en dit behoort ’n besondere vertoning te wees. Williams is tans die mees gesogte speler in die spel.”

Will post the english version as soon as it is publisize. In the article also a mention about George 7s tournament with R1 Million price money Quade Cooper and SBW will play in the NBM All Stars team.

In short I'll give it my best shot and will try to give some background. We all know that the All Blacks and NZ teams have a lot of supporters in this area. SBW is like Elvis or the Beetles on their days specially in our coloured community. His agent dont talk shite when he use this explanation "if he went to all the requests he got for meals last year while in the Cape, he would have had three meals for two years in different households" SBW says the Cape Town public have big appreciation for his sporting talents and the reason why he love the place. His agent is on a current visit and looking at the possible to get him settled here. His contract ended at the end of the year and altho he have big promises from Japan , he wants to settle here. Willem Strauss the rugby man is his new boxing promoter and he'll fight here before the George 7s tournament. They are also in talks with the Stormers rugby lot for a possible contract.

More SA dribble

 

[barbarian]

He is definitely the most popular player in the game. In the SH anyway.

He isn't the most popular player in rugby circles, but in wider society it's SBW 1st and daylight 2nd.

My considered opinion is that Khoder Nasser has been sparring with his client without wearing headgear.

You are assuming Khoder started at a high base.

When has he taken the money? He rejected a $6M contract offer to stay in France before joining the Crusaders, and then rejected equally large offers from France again and Japan before joining the Chiefs this year. You've obviously been fed too much BS from News limited/NRL journos.

He wont find RL in SA.

 

[Cave Dweller]

Is he not suppose to join a rugby league team called the Roosters or Chickens or something like that when his current contract end?

But by staying in NZ... how much has he earned from his boxing career and any other endorsements associated from being an All Black?

I'm not suggesting it's more than his overseas offers, but rather am just curious...

I'm positive he could have made a lot more money fighting out of Europe if that was his motive. I believe he's donated a large chunk of his boxing earnings so far though.

He left the NRL Bulldogs mid contract to chase some big coin in France...$BW

He joined the Crusaders to promote his rugby brand........."it's all about me"

He didn't join the Chiefs for peanuts. Why did he leave the Crusaders?

Is that approx 4 clubs in 5-6 seasons.........chasing either money or stoking his ego? Yeah, he's a real team man

He's been at The Chiefs 3 months and he's talking about a move back to the NRL?

It seems he has been promoting his brand in Africa also.

A really dedicated team man...........no?

He also boxes professionally when he is contracted to a professional rugby team. he doesn't have any consideration for his employers or team mates that he might be injured and miss some matches......"it's all about me"

The bloke is on sale to the highest bidder. An RSA move wouldn't surprise anybody. Don't expect him to stick around though

You must have spent too much time in the communist run ACT, living under a rock

 

[Brumbies Guy]

He left the NRL Bulldogs mid contract to chase some big coin in France...$BW

He left mid contract because of a dispute over the treatment of some of the younger players in the club, he ended up paying off his contract

He joined the Crusaders to promote his rugby brand........."it's all about me"

Huh? He joined Crusaders to try his luck at making the All Blacks for the World Cup, and he took a big pay cut in doing it. If he was chasing the money he would never have left.

He didn't join the Chiefs for peanuts. Why did he leave the Crusaders?

His contract was up and he said he wanted to move closer to home. If he was chasing the big coin you don't think there's 30 other clubs around the world that you pay him more?

Is that approx 4 clubs in 5-6 seasons.........chasing either money or stoking his ego? Yeah, he's a real team man

You've just described most professional rugby players, except none of turned down the sizable contracts he has to play for NZRU.

He's been at The Chiefs 3 months and he's talking about a move back to the NRL?

Now SBW runs the media? I haven't seen a quote from him about it at all.

He also boxes professionally when he is contracted to a professional rugby team. he doesn't have any consideration for his employers or team mates that he might be injured and miss some matches......"it's all about me"

Boxing professionally is in his contract, I think that indicates that it was given a bit of consideration considering he and his employer have both obviously signed it.. Most of the top NZ players now pick up short term contracts in the offseason to play stints in France or Japan, you don't hear a word about having no consideration for their employers about being injured or missing matches.

The bloke is on sale to the highest bidder. An RSA move wouldn't surprise anybody. Don't expect him to stick around though

Obviously not to the highest bidder, otherwise he would have been in France or Japan years ago.

You must have spent too much time in the communist run ACT, living under a rock
